Lmao. I can’t believe people still think someone wearing flip cops in any way affects their vacation. Good lord. 

Different question but to avoid starting a new thread. Does anyone know I’d they can make a virgin mudslide, and then I could order a shot of baileys to dump in? Trying to be cheap….

You “got Covid from the cruise”? What makes you so sure one of your 15 family members didn’t bring it on, or catch it in an airport, or on an island…etc? Bottom line is anyone traveling anywhere has to expect to get Covid, or stay home.

ATM fee is like $8….so depends on amount. Cheaper to take $500 out of ATM then bill $500 to your room

Plenty, and I mean plenty, of people get on the ship the first day and don’t get off it until it docks back at home. 

You are 100% wrong and you are the smug one. I use Wi-Fi in airplane mode all the time. How the hell do you think people use Wi-Fi on airplanes at 35,000 feet when airplane mode is required to be on? 🙄

Have not been on NCL since November 2019. Going this month….Comped ocean view. Think the key was they are tied into my local casino and see the play there. When I was booking through CAS every other time it was inside room comp only. 

Vacaya is the closest more family-like cruise, and they care about their customers. Atlantis just wants your money and a 5000 person circuit party 

If you happen to gamble a moderate amount, you can generally book through the casino and get them to waive the supplement as well 

You are correct it’s not enforced, but it is a written rule both on signage and printed in the dailies etc. but definitely not enforced 

It really is pretty ridiculous at this point. Pre Covid , everyone could still make the argument that they may lose gambling revenue if they went nonsmoking. Post Covid, every land casino I know of north of New York City (maybe PA seems to be an exception), and probably several hundred miles further out, are completely nonsmoking now. And the revenue has certainly not dropped…they are busier than ever. 
 

Add the fact that more than half of the people polluting the casino don’t actually ever gamble and just use it as their personal smoking section because it’s closer than going upstairs to a smoking area…….it’s time for it to go, permanently. 

Yup. Adult charter. Didn’t see a kid for 6 days til we ended up in a Port with another ship. Lol. 

Just do you know, what you get quoted will change depending on who you speak to many times. Ive called and been given one story and called the next day and someone else took hundreds of dollars off the quote.

the one big problem with CAS is their “admin fees”. On Royal Caribbean you really just pay taxes and port fees. You can cruise in an inside cabin for $150. On NCL the casino charges booking fees of a couple hundred bucks minimum. 

This is why when people keep saying “have you booked a cruise” I say “nope”.

Until the cruise line guarantees if one person tests positive I don’t have to sit in my room, I’ll take the land vacations I guess. If vaccinated, everyone else should be able to,go about their day.

Oh please. It’s one of the best shows at sea. 
 

I dont understand how anyone can sit through burn the floor and yet someone thinks something like Priscilla is “bad”. 

Bermudas season ends the same week they are redeploying there...odd. 

Ok by me. Friends and I are looking to travel and Florida is the only state not pn the list I can’t see rewarding them with any tourist money right now. Bars and clubs continuously posting videos of hundreds of massless people dancing and packed in...all set. 

They’ve mostly all been flagged outside of the US to avoid our tax laws for decades...why should this be any different...

Good.

I’m scheduled on an RCCL one that hasn’t been cancelled yet, but even if it goes,8 probably won’t. It was a casino comp so I’ll eat the $133.

I’m sure it’s been posted somewhere else in CC world but I didn’t see it on the NCL board

thanks! Youve added a lot to this conversation! Go back under your bridge. 

Afte ri sold last time it went to ten after the bankruptcy talk and I decided to stay out...whoops. Also sold my RCL at 48 two weeks ago and it’s at 73 today. 

I sold at $48.50. Third time I’ve sold since mid March $1000 profit each time. Happy to let the roller coaster continue...

I know people view the crew S desperate for the money in many cases, but how many of them will decide not to re-up after this too? Especially not being paid for months while sitting on the ships.
